💫 In May of 2023, we hosted “Practicing for an Abolitionist World,” a virtual gathering for transformative & restorative justice and community accountability practitioners from around the world, with the belief that community-based responses to harm have always been global.
This is a poster for an event with images of trees and people in circles talking and holding hands. The poster says "Practicing for an Abolitionist World: A Virtual Transnational Gathering for Transformative Justice, Restorative Justice, and Community Accountability Practitioners. May 18-21st, 2023. Sponsored by Project Nia, Just Practice Collaborative, Spring Up Collective, and Interrupting Criminalization.
